Answer:

Li-F

Step-by-step explanation:

Hydroxide is a negative ion, which can form ionic bonds with metals, but the bond in hydrogen and oxygen in hydroxide (OH-) is not ionic. It is covalent in nature.

C-C is clearly a covalent bond.

Li-F is an ionic bond.

Bond between H and Cl in H-Cl is covalent in nature. Because of the size difference hydrogen can not act as a cation. So it rather dissociates.
